The Servo Digital Out Type A Daughterboard is used to hook up standard RC-type servos. It features 8 PWM servo outputs with individual calibration of both zero offset and gain (multiplier) that controls the movement range.

The resistor array RN1 (package: DIL-16) might not be easy to find in some areas. It is also possible to use 8 single resistors instead. In this case you could skip the step with the RN1 socket. Or, you could use a machined (turned) DIL-16 socket for the single resistors. Either just plug the resistors in the socket contacts or solder them to it.

DOA bus to CON1, and up to eight servos to SERVO1-SERVO8 Make sure that your servo's pinout matches the pinout of this board: GND,+5V,PWM (counted from board edge inwards) For further details see docs.

First start with the smaller components and work your way up to the bigger ones like sockets and connectors. This helps at places where the bigger stuff might get in the way of soldering smaller parts.

The bare board and all the needed parts.

If you don't have a double-sided board, start with the jumper wires J1 and J2. I didn't have to do this as I have a double-sided board.

Bend the leads of resistor R1 to the appropriate size. Using a tool like this makes it easier but is not necessary.

Put in R1 in place.

Bend the leads so that the resistor won't fall out when the board ...

... is turned upside-down for soldering. Now solder.

Continue with C2 and C3, the capacitors for the crystal oscillator. Solder.

Then put in the blocking cap C1.

Solder.

Now move to the socket for RN1. Using plasti-tak(R) (removable adhesive putty) I fixed the socket for soldering.
